However I've decided to try and switch up the way I post to make my photo dumps more mobile friendly.
When the Imperial Knight first came out I knew I had to do something to convert it. Later when reading that GW had fleshed out the background and included a knight world dedicated to helping my titan legion I knew the best thing to do was have it stepping on an Ork vehicle of some kind.

There's a little WIP blogish and more pics after the break!<br /><a name='more'></a>
First I took stock of the canvas I had to work with. The base for the knights is HUGE for those who haven't seen it. This is it under a trygon/flyer base.
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Super%20Heavies/Knights/temporary_zps5869baec.jpg" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Super%20Heavies/Knights/temporary_zps5869baec.jpg" /></a>
First was getting the leg to be stepping. This wasn't too difficult but trying to get the power cables lined up correctly ended up requiring a fill in from Dragon Forge.
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Super%20Heavies/Knights/temporary_zpsdc7f9554.jpg" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Super%20Heavies/Knights/temporary_zpsdc7f9554.jpg" /></a>
After hacking on the leg I realized there wasn't going to be much give without doing a ton of modifications so I decided to add a few rocks under his feet to raise him up more.

Next I went out and picked up an extra killa-kan from a friend of mine and converted it so it was being stomped.
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Super%20Heavies/Knights/WIP/temporary_zps9cef1b7d.jpg" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Super%20Heavies/Knights/WIP/temporary_zps9cef1b7d.jpg" /></a>

Not that all the hacking was out of the way I got to work laying into this guy with my airbrush. A coat of Vallejo's black primer followed by the same Testors Insignia Red I used on the warhounds for the carapace, Testor's Buffing Metallizer Gunmetal for the skeleton, and I was ready to go.

And now here he sits finished and ready to game!

More pics of the base that will be finished when I get more knights.

Now to store this behemoth I picked up some battlefoam specifically designed for knights.
<a href="http://us.battlefoam.com/space-marine-2-imperial-knight-foam-tray-bf-7/"></a>
However I've come to learn the hard way that only the top 1/2 of the tray is pluck and pick, so it required some careful sawing to get the overlarge base to fit.

The last few months I've been working 7 days a week and turning the lights on and off.<br />So what have I painted this year?<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Space Marines:</span><br />Built and painted 3rd Company Tactical and assault marines<br />Built and painted 3rd Company Chaplain and Librarian<br />Built and painted Damocles Rhino<br />Built and painted 10 Space Marine Veterans<br />Built and painted 4 Dreadnoughts<br />Basecoated 9 Landspeeders<br />Built and painted 3 Apothecaries<br />Built 24 Death Company<br />Built 17 Marines<br />Built 6 Chaplains<br />Built 4 Librarians<br />Converted 2 Librarians<br />Built 7 Commanders<br />Built 4 Apothecaries<br />Built 10 Tech marines<br />Built 3 Standard bearers<br />Built 8 Command Squad models<br />Converted 2 Company Champions<br />Built 5 Terminators<br />Built 9 Servitors<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Grey Knights:</span><br />Built and painted Grand Master Test Model<br />Basecoated Land Raider Redeemer<br />Built and painted 2 Librarians<br />Built and painted 2 Heavily Converted Dread Knights<br />Built and Painted Giant Display base<br />Built and painted 48 Servo Skulls<br />Built and painted 4 Familiars<br />Built and painted Castellan Crowe<br />Built and painted Tech Marine<br />Converted and Basecoated Lelith to Callidus <br />Built and painted 4 Crusaders<br />Converted and Painted Megan Fox figure to Callidus<br />Built and painted 3 Vindicare assassins<br />Converted and painted Vindicare assassin<br />Built and painted Culexus assassin<br />Built and painted Imperial Assassin<br />Built and painted 3 Witch Hunters<br />Built and painted Nearly 150 Purifiers<br />Built and painted 1 Fallout mini<br />Built and painted 3 Inquisitor Rex bodyguards<br />Built and painted Dark eldar to Callidus Conversion<br />Built and painted Culexus Conversion<br />Converted 34 Crusaders<br />Converted 9 Tech marines<br />Built 60 Terminators<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Imperial Guard:</span><br />Stripped Fixed and painted Stormblade<br />Stripped Fixed and painted Baneblade<br />Built and painted 20 Sentinels<br />Built and painted 14 Commissars<br />Basecoated 90 Stormtroopers<br />Basecoated nearly 200 Guardsmen<br />Built and painted 16 Enginseers<br />Built and painted 10 Adepts and Servitors<br />Built 1 Commissar<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Terrain:</span><br />Painted 6 feet of Aegis Defence Lines<br />Built and painted 10 Sentry Guns<br />Converted enlarged Punisher cannon<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Commission:</span><br />Built and painted 4 Servitors<br />Built and painted Enginseer<br />Built and painted Genesis Chapter Assault Squad<br />Built and painted Vulkan Hestan<br />Built and painted Dreadnought <br />Built and painted Full Ultramarines command squad<br />Built and painted Ultramarines Tac squad<br />Built and painted Crimson Fist2 Tactical Squads<br />Built and painted 2 Crimson Fist Dreadnoughts<br />Built and painted 1 Birthday Present Cygnar model<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Played:</span><br />15k Apoc-a-strike with no super heavies<br />Wargames Con<br />25k Apocalypse Game<br />1k Tournament GW Frisco (2nd)<br />2k Feast of Blades Tournament (4th)<br />2k Sideboard tournament (2nd)<br />AMPS modeling contest Silver Medal<br />Hobby Town Dallas Super Heavy Painting contest (1st Place)<br /><br />So my hope is to try and do at least 1 update a week.FodaBetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00653005973603343446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855608718168453993.post-49354220703371721142011-02-20T13:12:00.003-06:002011-02-20T13:19:23.370-06:00Space Hulk Libby, Belial, Promise of future knights!I've kind of been neglecting most of my posting duties around the net as I work on ebay to clean my house up. However, due to that I've purchased a MUCH better camera. I've managed to paint up a few models over the past months and I'll be posting pictures of them when I get time. In the mean time here is the last of the un-Blood Angel-ed space hulk termi, and my very old Lysander-to-Belial conversion. Pictures after the break!<br /><a name='more'></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/1st%20Company/?action=view&current=belial.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/1st%20Company/belial.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/1st%20Company/?action=view&current=libby.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/1st%20Company/libby.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I tried playing with GIMP a little more to make some better all in one shots. What do y'all think?<br /><br />As I posted last time I'd planned to complete my Space Wolf army this year, however, I think I'm going to scrap it. I've also been bitten by the Grey Knight bug and I'll be repainting my 10k worth of knights over the next few months. The first step was to get a clear count of what I've picked up over the last year via trades and bartering and I'm glad to say that task is done! I'll be posting some photos of my old scheme and my new base coated Grey Knight later.FodaBetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00653005973603343446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855608718168453993.post-81523371231711797182011-01-30T20:28:00.003-06:002011-02-20T13:19:48.406-06:0036th Post - Updates on meWell first off I've got some updates on my resolution. Then I've been working on some commission work for Bob and Mac. And lately I've been painting up some 5th company marines. I also purchased a Pentax K-X camera, so I'll be taking some nice pictures.<br /><br />Here's the 2010 Resolutions<br /><a name='more'></a><br /><b>1)</b> Buy more carrying cases. I have no room to store any more completed models (apart from a few more marines). So my number one objective needs to be to get some more foam to store my minis! I can't finish any half done projects if I have no place to store a finished product.<br />I've spent more this year on foam than anything else so I guess I've accomplished this one<br /><br /><b>2)</b>Finalize a paint scheme for my Khador army. I've got a Warmachine army that's been gathering dust waiting for the release of the new rules set this January. Once that bad boy hits I want to be able to play a few games and to do that I need to have a painted army.<br />Done and done. I finalized a paint scheme for my khador and played 3 games. <br /><br /><b>3)</b> Only play with painted stuff. Playing in Brian's campaign this year has inspired me to only play with painted figs. I've got enough figs and tanks around the house to field nearly anything I want to so I just need to paint it all, and the best way to do that is to only play with painted figs.<br />I only played in 1 game this entire year with unpainted models and that was against Brian. Of course I only played in about 20 games.<br /><br /><b>4)</b> Finish rare models collection. I'm missing 2 models to have every Ultramarine GW has produced, I'm going to try and track them down this year and I'll let no ebay sniper get in my way. I'm also missing a few rogue trader mechanicus figures to finish off a collection of them.<br />I don't know how but I was able to track down both the Ultramarines figures this year, however the mechanicum figs I'm missing have shot up to the ~$30 price range and I don't know if I'm happy with spending that much on 1 infantry figure.<br /><br /><b>5)</b> Finish a super heavy. Stormlord, warhounds, reavers, mysterious projects no one's seen? Take your pick, but I definitely need to finish 1 or all of them.<br />Swing and a miss. Although the warhounds are nearing completion.<br /><br /><b>6)</b> Keep track of painting and purchases via log book. I've created an excel spreadsheet for keeping track of my gaming related purchases and accomplishments. I'd like to see at the end of the next year everything I've accomplished without having to rely on my faulty memory.<br />Mission accomplished! I painted 1270 figures in the past year. That includes vehicles, characters and nearly 300 15mm figures. Out of that total 1136 were on commission. I started but never finished 74 figures.<br />Monetarily... well lets just say I spent too much. <br /><br />For 2011:<br /><b>Increase my molding capabilities.</b> There has been some things I want to mold but I've been afraid too, I've got some silicon that's about to go bad and I figure it's time to experiment.<br /><br /><b>Start my Wolf army.</b> I've signed myself up for the 40k Radio motivational challenge for the rest of 2011 and it'll hopefully keep me going on my wolves. Every month I have to complete something different<br />Jan - Bootaz Choice<br />Feb – Troop<br />March – HQ<br />April – Troop<br />May – Elite<br />June – Heavy Support<br />July – Fast Attack<br />August – Elite<br />September – Heavy Support<br />October – Bootaz Choice including Toys for Tots<br />Nov – Fast Attack<br />Dec – Objective Markers / Terrain /Display Board <br /><br /><b>Play in more tournaments.</b> Hopefully as I move into the career world I'll be able to get some Saturdays off to play in a few tournaments.<br /><br /><b>Play on Wednesday nights.</b> As I'm finally finished with school I plan on making it up on Wednesday nights more often. This will give me some more practice, which I am in dire need of.<br /><br /><b>Buy more foam.</b> This is a repeat goal because I'm tired of having models strewn everywhere. I'm trying to make a case of unpainted models so I can just open it up when I get the painting itch.FodaBetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00653005973603343446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855608718168453993.post-5914662728024696222010-11-30T18:39:00.003-06:002010-11-30T18:58:14.376-06:0035th Post - UpdateOk so I'm sorry I've let this languish for so long. I'm graduating at the end of this semester and I've been breaking my back trying to study. I've also managed to finish a few more commissions such as 275 Flames of War 15mm Russians for Bob, 80 15mm Germans for Mac and I'm working on 80 more 15mm Germans for Mac.<br /><br />Bob and Mac are good friends of mine and they've just restarted their Flames of War hobby... well game I guess since I'm doing the hobby. <br /><br />Next up I've been working on the Damoclese rhino, it's almost done with decals applied. Next step is to gloss and flatten the decals then weather the whole tank. I'm not going to be doing much weathering because I like my marines battle ready.<br /><br />Dad and I have also been working on the warhounds. We've got lights installed, sound boards ready to be wired and even put some paint down on them! Well it's just the reactors.<br /><br />I've also been selling some of my unused models. I've now sold off nearly all of my Fantasy stuff, leaving only the pile of 2nd hand Empire models left. I've also started selling my Warmachine models. I've come to realize that with the monetary and time investments I've been sinking into the 40k universe I really don't have much left for other game systems. Don't get me wrong I've started branching off into Battle Fleet Gothic (played my first game) and Epic 40k (Started buying companies of tanks), Aeronautica Imperialis (purchased 4 planes), but I think my table top gaming is going to be in just the 41st millennium.FodaBetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00653005973603343446noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855608718168453993.post-12907696569608496752010-09-27T16:00:00.006-05:002010-09-27T16:19:26.584-05:0034th Post - 3 Sanguinary Priests<span><span>Well I've been doing a lot of sanding on the titans lately so no pretty pictures of them, however I was able to finish some quick Sanguinary Priests for Bob.

We've basically taken the time to bring the other 3 into line with the first. <br />So in the mean time I've been working on a little commission (20 sanguinary guard, dante, and sanguinor) and painting some terminators. I've tried a few things out on these terminators that I like. First I've tried dryrbushing the light gray for all of the highlights. Second I've treid Kermi brown with bleached bone highlight instead of scorched brown with bleached bone highlight for all the parchment. Both these slight changes have increased the speed at which I can paint terminators, and I managed to paint 28 of them since my last post! <br /><a name='more'></a><br />First up 10 Thunder hammer storm shield termis<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ_a0S7RDNmrp-ursjwTy00fVr0F3TjmmvQgLZ93J5nBM4f7lfPSnaf31Q5fH82OwTBY1tIBHhFsdTLEYXs0EJAuxECkWLVqWgUt7rLb_FnJ0d1JSReeL8eVXKYcbF9hXyZ5b0aFU4zDo/s1600/IMAG0525.jpg"><br /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinGa9SRfvDD4zL2ar_eF7UTZjni3zVte329HnlH_PLzLqxvx3bkAcbnhvPWU48AdwO7h8paoCAtok-DxS9-WeUpOU7gOX0xiegsUXK60Ok842YVAHah03by78H9cTQgavr5jLoZIc8TLE/s1600/IMAG0508.jpg"><img style="display: block;

I'm still on the look out for some Mechanicus and select Marine and Guard stuff but the Ultramarines were the hardest part.<br /><br />Next up on the painting table is Bob's Sanguinary Guard, Dante, and Sanguinor (GOLD BABY!) I've got another 12,000 points per side battle coming up. This time between Kenny and his friend Eric (before he's shipped back overseas) and myself. We've decided no super heavies and no flank marching. It's going to be their 12k of Blood Angels and Guard vs my 12k of Marines and Guard.<br /><br />Ok, I may have gone a little nuts on the pictures but here they are:<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?start=all" class="postlink">http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?start=all</a><br />Chaos black was NOT used on these models. Most of these models were done with dry brushing. After I black washed the flames I brought them back with dry brushing, and that's how I did the braziers by dry brushing the flames. Same thing to highlight the guns, and that is even how I did the bone (except for the noses of the beakies). A small dry brushing can go a long way.<br /><br />I think they're probably the best line infantry I've done. Obviously some flaws here and there but I'm tired of painting them.<br /><br />I've also been invited to be a co-author at Game Headz blog at<br /><a href="http://game-headz.blogspot.com/">http://game-headz.blogspot.com/</a><br />so expect to see some stuff from me over there.FodaBetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00653005973603343446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855608718168453993.post-22920541174922504052010-08-03T23:38:00.004-05:002011-02-20T13:26:37.419-06:0030th Post - Back from WARcon, LoTD Guard conversionWell I've back from WARcon. <br />I ended up getting 3 wins, 2 Draws, and 2 Losses. The points were a little weird (going from 0 - 50 per game in most cases) and I played a couple of jerks and some REALLY great opponents but all and all I had a blast. Hanging out with Bradford, Michael, and all the people we met was definitely the highlight! Dave Taylor taught and awesome class and I learned some sculpting tricks that I'll be trying out later.<br /><br />But now that I'm home it's time to go back to painting.

I'd been waiting for this set for almost 2 years now as I thought they'd make good IG stand in, and work great for heavy weapon team spotters, and conscripts.<br />Here's the first conversion.

Well the answer to that is simple. I've started working on them again.<br /><br />I'm afraid I went a little Legion crazy when the new Legion of the Damned models were released. I picked up 1 of every model released and then got a deal for an extra box minus the sarge. So I have 2 full squads, 1 10 man using multi-melta and melta gun, 1 10 man using heavy flamer and flamer. <br />Here's some pics of conversions I did to make the duplicates from the boxed set not look so samey.<br /><a name='more'></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0124.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0124.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0123.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0123.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />I usually try to pick up metal models when they are first released as they have crisp detail since the mold hasn't had time to deteriorate. You should see some of my "recently" purchased steel legion compared to ones I picked up in the late 90s. There are huge blobs under their arms. I didn't think the Legion of the Damned molds would last long with all those undercuts so I jumped on them when they came out.<br /><br />First step was do all the bone in Kermi Brown<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0398.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0398.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />Then I put Iyanden Darksun as a base for the flames<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0400.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0400.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0401.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0401.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0403.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0403.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />Finally I added Scorched Brown as a basis for the leather, wood, and purity seals.<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0402.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0402.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />I also built Bob's Ultramarines and Blood Angels.<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/?action=view¤t=IMAG0399.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Other/IMAG0399.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>FodaBetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00653005973603343446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855608718168453993.post-52178491818275456612010-07-27T03:28:00.005-05:002011-02-20T13:27:25.162-06:0026th Post -

squads on my city fight board<br /><a name='more'></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/2nd%20Company/?action=view&current=MVC-868F.jpg"

/>3 Venerable,<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/2nd%20Company/?action=view&current=MVC-863F.jpg" target="_blank"><img

the infamous Foda Pattern drop pod was born<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Drop%20Pods/?action=view&current=MVC-322S.jpg" target="_blank"><img

squads), and more marines (so each squad could hit the full 10 man requirement)<br /><a

10 strong<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/2nd%20Company/?action=view&current=MVC-694F.jpg" target="_blank"><img

Post - Ultramarines History part 1 - Starting the armyWell here we are another history post, this time it’s for my Ultramarines.<br />You may want to get something to drink while this loads.<br /><br />As y’all have read I originally started 40k with Tyranids. However due to the lack of a codex I decided to start Space Marines. After I read the 3rd Edition Space Marine codex I found I really liked the Ultramarines fluff and special characters, so I started painting my models in the original blue and yellow scheme. <br /><a name='more'></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/My%20First%20Paint%20Jobs/?action=view¤t=MyUltramarines.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/My%20First%20Paint%20Jobs/MyUltramarines.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br />With the release of the 4th edition codex and many improvements in my painting skills I decided it was time to redo my army. I went with a scheme that was darker than the stock GW one. <br />Here was the test model<br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Chapter%20Command/?action=view¤t=MVC-857F.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Foda_Bett/40k/Space%20Marines/Chapter%20Command/MVC-857F.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />I had originally tried to organize this chronologically but my memory isn’t clear enough to go back the nearly 8 years since 4th edition has come out.FodaBetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00653005973603343446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855608718168453993.post-88159849990312607852010-07-25T15:39:00.002-05:002010-07-25T15:47:39.924-05:0020th Post - Display boardToday I pulled the display board out and took some photos of the army on top of it.<br />Here's the whole thing.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6c8lrg32vL1mBmJ2NvJlRUnjBemqrwF_mIcCP78vu35MjOiUrfSmmljEQUgcXmYq2F1Yf2b4VBPtpHUVl9DXn-FGhrlolQdhw74vj-KXli-4YZaDJCHfGsIWoq1eUgBXtdctQwcvDZIU/s1600/IMAG0377.jpg"><img style="display: block;

I'm going to go back with a little brown and hit the engine burns and muzzle burns a bit. I destroyed that little makeup brush they give you so I'll need to go buy another one.<br /><br />I've got 1 week till I leave and the army is technically done! That's a big improvement from last year where I was painting in the hotel room the night before the Big Waaagh.<br /><br />So apart from commissions what should I do next?<br />I've been thinking of trying to finish off my russes or maybe paint some more terminators.
